Hi,
I will be conducting an introductory workshop on GNU autotools in #fedora-classroom on 03 May, 2010 at 13:30 UTC. The aim of the classroom is to get people started on autotoolizing C code. I will use an example project and will go through the following:
* Downloading the sample application * Creating files for the application => configure.ac -> Initialization -> Checks -> Output => Makefile.am -> Build programs -> Install additional files * Generating scripts
Prerequisites for those wanting to attend this:
* Familiarity with make, gcc * Ensure that autoconf, automake, gcc, make, etc. are installed on your system. `yum groupinstall "Development Tools"` ought to get all of it
The session will not be covering autoheader and libtool since: * The sample I'm using does not need it * Those concepts are slightly more advanced and may require more time
In other words, the session is for people who have never worked with autotools before.

You can find more info about Fedora classroom sessions at

I had a chance to talk to Kevin Fenzi who leads the classroom effort and we have decided to collaborate on the online workshops. I have added my RPM Packaging workshop link in this page and we will be listing future workshops initiated by Fedora India team in the same place as well. All future announcements on this will be sent to the announce mailing list as well as here. I have talked to a few folks on doing sessions on I18N, L10N, Python and Vala and I will look out for someone to do a session on debugging as well. Keep an eye out for all this in the coming weeks.
